Am I covered by Attorney/Client privilege?

  • It depends. The factors that determine whether your communications with us are covered by the attorney/client privilege are: whether we have been engaged by you or your attorney, what you have asked us to do and whether you want us to be consulting or testifying experts in your case.

Can you testify in my defense?

  • Yes. We have testified in federal and state court and are very familiar with the process.

How much is the retainer?

  • We usually ask for a $2,500.00 retainer, which represents the first 10 hours of work in a case. If we think the case will require a lot of work up front, we’ll request more of a retainer. If the amount of work exceeds the retainer, we will invoice you and you will be required to pay an additional amount to complete the work. If we finish and there is money left over from the retainer, we’ll give you a refund of whatever amount is left over.
